“How is the birdhouse coming along, Charlie Brown?"
"Well, I'm a lousy carpenter, I can't nail straight, I can't saw straight and I always split the wood... I'm nervous, I lack confidence, I'm stupid, I have poor taste and absolutely no sense of design... So, all things considered, it's coming along okay!”
--Charles M. Schulz, The Complete Peanuts, Vol. 5: 1959-1960

Joining Rural Thursday. Flap your wings and fly to the site for more rural fun.
i have built some 'trailer trash' bird houses and hung them here. thankfully my birds are as down-to-earth as i am, and they don't seem to mind. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's great that you build. I like to try. :) My favorite bird houses are the really rustic ones. I think that last one is a homemade job and I think it's great.
Deletehe really is the Charlie Bowniest! LOVE these bird houses Nancy... Woodstock would adore them all!
ReplyDeleteWoodstock is the best. Thanks for visiting and commenting, Laura.
DeleteI love the adobe inn bird houses! I am going to try my hand at growing bird house gourds this year. I hope they work out.
ReplyDeleteI grew gourds one year. Even a loofa. Very interesting. I think bird house gourds would be pretty cool. Let me know how it turns out.
DeleteThese are all so sweet -- little pieces of folk art. A wonderful collection Nancy -- thanks for sharing with us. :)
ReplyDeleteMy pleasure, Nancy. I'm thinking as I type this of T's barn birdhouse earlier this week. I wish I had that one in my "collection". Hope you have a great weekend.
DeleteWhat a sweet array of bird houses, lets hope that the birds appreciate the amount of work that goes into making these.
ReplyDelete:) If birds could talk I'm sure they would say, "Thanks". :)
